Unlikely. These cars used sealed hub assemblies, never seen one overheat to the point of the wheel actually getting hot.
As the other guys said, its either your caliper (stuck piston), flex hose (collapsed), or caliper slide pins (seized).
You said you replaced the caliper, where did you buy the it from??
